FAYETTEVILLE (AP) — The former mistress of fired University of Arkansas football coach Bobby Petrino has resigned from her position with the program, school officials announced Tuesday.

Jessica Dorrell’s decision to step down as the football team’s student-athlete development coordinator was mutual and there are no immediately plans to re-fill the job, Athletic Director Jeff Long said in a statement.

Dorrell will be paid about $14,000 to settle “all matters between the parties.”

“While Ms. Dorrell had a legitimate right to apply for and accept a position within the football program, the circumstances surrounding the former coach’s decision to hire her compromised her ability to be effective in such a position,” Long said. “She and I believe she should have the opportunity to move on.”

As part of her resignation, Dorrell agreed she would not attempt to sell or profit from her affiliation with Razorback athletics, officials said.

Long fired Petrino last week for not disclosing that he was having an extramarital affair with Dorrell, as required by conflict of interest rules at the school.

Dorrell, a former Arkansas volleyball player, was a Razorback Foundation fundraiser before she was hired over 158 other applicants for the coordinator position. Petrino announced March 28 that Dorrell would take over the position at a salary of nearly $56,000.

Their affair became public after the two went for a motorcycle ride April 1 and skidded off the road, putting Petrino in the hospital and resulting in a police report that contained her identity.

Long has said the two were in a relationship for a “significant” amount of time. Phone records show they exchanged more than 4,300 text messages and nearly 300 phone calls over the past seven months, and possibly photo and video content.

She was placed on leave after news of the affair broke.

Petrino has apologized and said he would not appeal his firing and seek any of the $18 million buyout that was part of his contract. He had the option to appeal as part of the seven-year contract he agreed to in December 2010. The contract was for more than $3.5 million annually and carried the $18 million mutual buyout clause in 2011 and 2012.

Gilbert arrested

Arkansas backup linebacker Tyler Gilbert was arrested and charged with aggravated residential burglary and theft of property for his role in an apartment break-in.

Fayetteville police arrested Gilbert Tuesday morning and booked him into the Washington County Detention Center. A court date is scheduled for Friday.

Arkansas assistant head coach Taver Johnson said through spokesman Zack Higbee that Gilbert has been suspended indefinitely for the incident last Friday.

A police report says that Gilbert and Arkansas students Jesse Booker and Ryan Graves kicked in the front door of the apartment of Mbato Nkwocha and took items from Nkwocha’s room. The report valued the stolen property at $285.

Golf event canceled

A charity golf tournament that bears the name of Bobby Petrino will be canceled.

Arkansas Children’s Hospital Foundation officials announced Tuesday after consulting with the Petrino family, foundation officials had no choice but to cancel the June 18 event, which was intended to benefit Arkansas Children’s Hospital.

Officials said Petrino apologized for any inconvenience the cancellation may cause.

Arkansas Children’s Hospital and the foundation thanked the Petrino family for their personal support. Petrino and his wife, Becky, donated $250,000 to Arkansas Children’s Hospital in September and pledged to help the hospital raise money.

Coaches keep focus during search

A week after Bobby Petrino’s firing, Arkansas football is in a state of flux as athletic director Jeff Long searches for a new head coach.

The Razorbacks wrap up spring practice with their Red-White scrimmage Saturday. In the meantime, assistant coaches are doing their best to hold the program together, and they’re doing so while awaiting their own fate.

Long hasn’t offered an update on the coaching search since firing Petrino on April 10, but he said last week that he would consider hiring both a proven, permanent head coach now as well as promoting a current member of the staff on an interim basis.
